"Houses of Parliament" is a series of paintings by the French artist Claude Monet, depicting the British Houses of Parliament during varying times and weather conditions. The series, created between 1900-1905 during Monet's stay in London, exemplifies the artist's focus on capturing shifts in atmospheric conditions and their effect on the facade of the iconic Gothic building, an approach that underscores his key role within the Impressionist movement.

The majority of the works in the series were painted from Monet's room in the Savoy Hotel, which offered a splendid view across the River Thames and towards the Houses of Parliament. Though the subject - the grand neo-Gothic building - retained a degree of consistency, the aesthetic experience was repeatedly transformed by temporal changes, atmospheric pressures, and visibility. The color palette of each painting fluctuates, reflecting variations in climate, fog, and sunlight.

One of the most famous in the series, “Houses of Parliament, Sunset” (1902), currently held in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., exemplifies Monet's masterful skill in rendering the ethereal qualities of light. The Houses of Parliament appear almost dissolved, swallowed up by the colored atmosphere and fog which is characteristic of London's weather, displaying Monet's bent towards symbolizing the impermanence of a moment.

This curious interplay between motif and mood in "Houses of Parliament" is arguably an experiment in shifting the viewer’s attention from the object to the act of perception itself, thus impelling us to consciously experience the creative process alongside the creator. This series further substantiates Monet's innovative contribution to modern art and his profound impact on generations of artists to follow.
